CLIMBING ROSES UNDER OIjASS. 



Climbing Roses under glass will require treatment 

 according to the class to which they belong. 



For instance, Marechal Niel, Climbing Niphetos, 

 Fortune's Yellow, and W. A. Richardson should be 

 pruned after flowering. The wood which has flowered 

 should be cut hard back to induce the formation of long 

 growths, which will be well ripened during the summer 

 and trained in for flowering the following spring. 



Generally the practice will be to remove worn out 

 or superfluous shoots as early as possible and to give all 

 the light and air to a sufficient number of the new 

 shoots, from the laterals of which flowers are expected 

 the following season. 



Whether the Climbing Roses are planted out, or in 

 pots, the treatment will be the same, except that those 

 in pots should be plunged in ashes out of doors during 

 the summer and autumn. (See also Instructions io> 

 32, and 33.)
